Logic dictates that if there is one life sustaining habitable planet in a solar system in our galaxy, then there must be countless many others. Our galaxy alone has billions of stars (suns), multitudes having orbiting planets. Hence, logic would dictate the existence of many other habitable planets, some perhaps similar to Earth, orbiting these billions of suns.

There are hundreds of millions/billions of stars in our Galaxy alone. How many have solar systems & orbiting planets with life on them? Can we come up with a ratio guess of possible habitable planets per 1 million suns? And what of the incredible, massive M31/Andromeda galaxy? It is thought that Andromeda is nearly twice the span/size of our galaxy, the Milky Way, with multiple hundreds of billions of stars. Can we even begin to contemplate the vast numbers of stars (“suns”) having orbital planets as solar systems? How many life-habitable planets are there in each one of those solar systems? How many life forms are there per system? How many are there, and what are the various stages of development that these life forms are at?

Hubble is said to estimate that there are as many as 50 billion galaxies in the Universe! Keep in mind that each galaxy has anywhere from hundreds of thousands to hundreds of millions to even multiple billions of stars. We like to think that we, the human race is so special and so smart – very easy to do when you’re not aware of the smarter kids that live around the corner or on the other side of town!
Currently, we are still child-like, narrow minded, paranoid and needlessly arrogant, unable to comprehend and accept the idea life forms on other habitable planets in and/or out of our galaxy, without fear and paranoia.
We are not yet mature enough to treat them with honor, respect, tolerance and acceptance. Are we now able to digest and comprehend knowledge of the unknown multitudes that make up ALL life in the Universe? Nope.

Since we cannot even get along with each other on THIS planet, not to mention obey simple laws of life, how can we logically and rationally absorb the knowledge of other galactic planetary life and treat them with respect?

Just as adults limit the exposure of children to the complexities, demands and vicissitudes of the rest of the world, likewise have we seemingly been time-paced in our awareness and knowledge of this vast and nearly incomprehensible Universe. Besides, why should we have just have all the answers simply given to us at once anyway!? Is it not far better for us to evolve and grow, as any normal plant, tree, animal, or child should does? Besides, it’s more fun this way.

Logic would dictate that there is more life in the vast Universe other than here on Earth. Time will tell all - it always does.
